    Sammanfattning : Flooding is of great concern world-wide, causing damage to infrastructure, property and loss of life. Low-income countries, in particular, can be negatively affected by flood events due to their inherent vulnerabilities. Moreover, data to perform studies for flood risk management in low-income regions are often scarce or lacking sufficient quality. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Information Needs for Water Resource and Risk Management : Hydro-Meteorological Data Value and Non-Traditional Information

    Författare :Marc Girons Lopez; Jan Seibert; Sven Halldin; Thomas Grabs; Giuliano Di Baldassarre; Elena Toth; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; water management; data resolution; non-traditional data; floods; modelling; social memory; precipitation; runoff; social media; interpolation; data value; gestió de l’aigua; resolució de les dades; dades no tradicionals; inundacions; modelització; memòria social; precipitació; escorrentia; xarxes socials; interpolació; valor de les dades; avrinning; befolkningars minne; dataupplösning; datavärde; interpolering; mjuk information; modellering; nederbörd; sociala medier; vattenförvaltning; översvämning; gestión del agua; resolución de los datos; datos no tradicionales; inundaciones; modelización; memoria social; precipitación; escorrentía; redes sociales; interpolación; valor de los datos; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

    Sammanfattning : Data availability is extremely important for water management. Without data it would not be possible to know how much water is available or how often extreme events are likely to occur. The usually available hydro-meteorological data often have a limited representativeness and are affected by errors and uncertainties. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Risk assessment of natural hazards : Data availability and applicability for loss quantification

    Författare :Tonje Grahn; Lars Nyberg; Magnus Johansson; Henrik Jaldell; Giuliano di Baldassarre; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; flood; landslide; damage; damage function; cost-benefit; decision support; causal relationship; Risk- och Miljöstudier; Risk and Environmental Studies;

    Sammanfattning : Quantitative risk assessments are a fundamental part of economic analysis and natural hazard risk management models. It increases the objectivity and the transparency of risk assessments and guides policymakers in making efficient decisions when spending public resources on risk reduction. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The use of global data to uncover how humans shape flood and drought risk

    Författare :Sara Lindersson; Giuliano Di Baldassarre; Johanna Mård; Luigia Brandimarte; Brett Sanders; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; natural hazards; hydrological disasters; environmental geography; global geospatial data; international databases; disaster losses; disaster consequences; water management; dams and reservoirs; floodplains; hydrological drought; social vulnerability; economic inequality; Anthropocene; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys; Earth Science with specialization in Environmental Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : The human consequences of flood and drought disasters are widespread and detrimental. Large-scale studies, drawing on global geodata products and international databases, can systematically examine how anthropogenic megatrends shape disaster risk and test the generalisability of findings from other scientific methodologies.

  7. 5. Changes in Hydrological Risk Perception and Implications for Disaster Risk Reduction

    Författare :Elena Mondino; Giuliano Di Baldassarre; Johanna Mård; Teun Terpstra; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; risk perception; floods; droughts; disaster risk reduction; sociohydrology; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys; Earth Science with specialization in Environmental Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Economic losses caused by hydrological extremes, such as floods and droughts, are exacerbating because of increased anthropogenic activities and global environmental changes. Understanding how individuals and communities interact with hydrological extremes thus becomes fundamental to develop effective strategies for disaster risk reduction. LÄS MER
